Air Quality in Offices
The indoor air quality in an
office environment or in other
words the air you breathe, will have
a profound effect on your
overall ability to work,
concentrate and perform daily
tasks. Poor indoor air
quality can lead to employee
complaints as well excessive
down-time and absenteeism.
Poor air quality can lead to odor complaints, allergic reactions and is one
of the leading sources for employee dissatisfaction in the workplace.
